In those discouraging days

I always missed the mark

I would neglect to keep



Oh, you safe and unexposed

A portrait of time repeats

This moment now replaced

With an empty wish to give

I give, I gave



I gave my everything

For all the wrong things

In this cold reality I made

This selfish war machine



How can I share this life

With someone else?

I promise you

There is no weight that can bury us

Beneath the ghosts of all my guilt



Here in the dark side of me

Here in the dark side of me



Now in your absence I wade

Through the coursing, lonely, lost

And in this tragic dismay

I never could believe what I became



I gave my everything

For all the wrong things

In this cold reality I made



How can I share this life

With someone else?

I promise you

There is no weight that can bury us

Beneath the ghosts of all my guilt



Here in the dark side of me

Here in the dark side of me

Here in the dark side of me

Here in the dark side of me



Oh, I couldn't give you

What you needed

It's all my fault

Too coward to believe I lost it all



I gave my everything

For all the wrong things

In this cold reality I made

This selfish war machine



How can I share this life

With someone else?

I promise you

There is no weight that can bury us

Beneath the ghosts of all my guilt



Here in the dark side of me

Here in the dark side of me

Here in the dark side of me

Here in the dark side of me
